Rx (Receiver)

A receiver is a hardware module or device used to receive signals of different kinds, depending on the context of the application. It may receive analogelectromagnetic signals or waves, or digital signals through wired media. The term receiver, however, is mostly used in communication, specifically wireless communication in terms of networking and cellular communication. It is the device that receives and decodes signals and then conditions or transforms them into something that another machine or computer understands.
